I wish I could have.. but I am getting this kit fool proofed hopefully, so I can regain my all show look.. have a decently comfy ride and no one ever even had interest in the kit when I had it up for sale.. oh well.

hey, your **** look amazing! did you buy the basic package or the deluxe one from alex? how much was the total? how much was the installation, if you didn't do it yourself. i'm seriously considering this now, what would be the difference if i just bought the $1100 (something like that) from alex, instead of yours (assuming you got the deluxe one) thanks!

This is the "deluxe" kit from alex I guess you can call it.. total comes to like $2800.00 for what I got:
2 chromed compressors
1 chromed tank
4 naplex fast valves
2 125 psi pressure switches(i think 125)
2 billet strut bags (front)
2 billet cylinders (rear)
2 dual pressure gauges
Tons of air lines
Polyeurathane bushing kit
All fittings, air T's, etc
If you want a basic kit, 2 valves, nothing chromed, all wiring and valves it'll probably run you under 1800 shipped, pending you give alex my name and
..I am going to buy a $400.00 compressor tomorrow morning, because I need more air in the tank more often than these little compressors can give.. it's too much hassle to wait, granted they only take 7-10 minutes to fill an empty tank, the compressor I want to get takes 2-3 minutes is intercooled, relayed, etc...
Alex will hook you up and everything is bolt on..

Trunk looks nice. Did you build a new floor and can you still get to your spare?

thanx for the compliment on the trunk....yes i bulit it so i could still get to the spare....if u look clocly in that pic u can see a line down the middle of the board....i cut that so i cna take the floor out and so i coudl fit it in....
what i did was take out the gray carpet in the trunk....traced that over a sheet of 1/2 inch thick plywood then used a saw and cut out what i traced....
after i had the cut out of my trunk i had to cut it in half so i could fit it in the trunk....
then i bought some black fabric (stuff that goes on sub boxes)i wanted gray but the shop only had black.... i also bought that headliner spray.....its like a spray glue type deal... i sprayed that on the 2 peices i had cut out.....then i put the fabric over and i used a staple gun to staple the extra fabric on the back of the plywood peices.....my air tank is bolted down with 4 bolts on the plywood...thats not going anywhere.....
and i can still get to my spare if needed....
thanx again for the compliment....the floor was real easy to do...might sound kinda time consumming but really its not...especially if u ahve all the materials right next to you....
do u got pix of ur air ride setup???
